Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 14.7 over 28 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
medium
Batting
High duck rate
Out for 0 in 14% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
medium
Fielding
Low overall fielding impact
0.22 dismissals per match across 41 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 14.7.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.74.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 8 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 55 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.41 for the level played (1st grade 2 · Rep Div 1 13 · Club 26). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- No match in the last 2 years, so not ranked. The rating shown is from the career.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 7 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 41 matches — 0.22 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 28 innings at 14.7 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 43 wickets in 39 matches bowled in (of 41 played) — 1.10 per match at 14.7, economy 2.74, strike rate 32.2.
